Finding the right direction

It’s raining in Albuquerque today, so I didn’t walk the neighborhood and find a Halloween photo like I planned. Instead, my picture for 10/31 was shot a couple of blocks from my office. I’ve been working at two different aspects of photography, getting the shot and processing it on the computer. Last night I had a guy tell me it was cheating to alter a picture, he believes there is only “one way,” and that’s straight from the camera. As you can tell from my recent postings that is not going to be my way and his comment inspired me to push this one a little farther.
